"There are bids on the table for seven players that have been rejected. Negredo, in particular, has refused an offer from a top European team."

Chelsea interim manager Rafael Benitez has been short of options in attack since taking over at Stamford Bridge, and has already strengthened in the January transfer window with the addition of Senegalese international Demba Ba.

However, Daniel Sturridge has also moved away from west London, meaning competition for Fernando Torres remains slim in west London, with just two senior strikers available.

Negredo now looks like an unlikely addition for Chelsea though, with Los Rojiblancos set to keep hold of their star players for the forseeable future.
